This paper addresses network anomography, that is, the problem of inferring network-level anomalies from indirect link measurements. This problem is cast as a low-rank subspace tracking problem for normal flows under incomplete observations, and an outlier detection problem for abnormal flows. Since traffic data is large-scale time-structured data accompanied with noise and outliers under partial observations, an efficient modeling method is essential. To this end, this paper proposes an online subspace tracking of a Hankelized time-structured traffic tensor for normal flows based on the Candecomp/PARAFAC decomposition exploiting the recursive least squares (RLS) algorithm. We estimate abnormal flows as outlier sparse flows via sparsity maximization in the underlying under-constrained linear-inverse problem. A major advantage is that our algorithm estimates normal flows by low-dimensional matrices with time-directional features as well as the spatial correlation of multiple links without using the past observed measurements and the past model parameters. Extensive numerical evaluations show that the proposed algorithm achieves faster convergence per iteration of model approximation, and better volume anomaly detection performance compared to state-of-the-art algorithms.

The problem of detecting anomalies in time series from network measurements has been widely studied and is a topic of fundamental importance. Many anomaly detection methods are based on packet inspection collected at the network core routers, with co nsequent disadvantages in terms of computational cost and privacy. We propose an alternative method in which packet header inspection is not needed. The method is based on the extraction of a normal subspace obtained by the tensor decomposition technique considering the correlation between different metrics. We propose a new approach for online tensor decomposition where changes in the normal subspace can be tracked efficiently. Another advantage of our proposal is the interpretability of the obtained models. The flexibility of the method is illustrated by applying it to two distinct examples, both using actual data collected on residential routers.
This paper proposes to develop a network phenotyping mechanism based on network resource usage analysis and identify abnormal network traffic. The network phenotyping may use different metrics in the cyber physical system (CPS), including resource an d network usage monitoring, physical state estimation. The set of devices will collectively decide a holistic view of the entire system through advanced image processing and machine learning methods. In this paper, we choose the network traffic pattern as a study case to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, while the methodology may similarly apply to classification and anomaly detection based on other resource metrics. We apply image processing and machine learning on the network resource usage to extract and recognize communication patterns. The phenotype method is experimented on four real-world decentralized applications. With proper length of sampled continuous network resource usage, the overall recognition accuracy is about 99%. Additionally, the recognition error is used to detect the anomaly network traffic. We simulate the anomaly network resource usage that equals to 10%, 20% and 30% of the normal network resource usage. The experiment results show the proposed anomaly detection method is efficient in detecting each intensity of anomaly network resource usage.

Detecting the anomaly behaviors such as network failure or Internet intentional attack in the large-scale Internet is a vital but challenging task. While numerous techniques have been developed based on Internet traffic in past years, anomaly detecti on for structured datasets by complex network have just been of focus recently. In this paper, a anomaly detection method for large-scale Internet topology is proposed by considering the changes of network crashes. In order to quantify the dynamic changes of Internet topology, the network path changes coefficient(NPCC) is put forward which will highlight the Internet abnormal state after it is attacked continuously. Furthermore we proposed the decision function which is inspired by Fibonacci Sequence to determine whether the Internet is abnormal or not. That is the current Internet is abnormal if its NPCC is beyond the normal domain which structured by the previous k NPCCs of Internet topology. Finally the new Internet anomaly detection method was tested over the topology data of three Internet anomaly events. The results show that the detection accuracy of all events are over 97%, the detection precision of each event are 90.24%, 83.33% and 66.67%, when k = 36. According to the experimental values of the index F_1, we found the the better the detection performance is, the bigger the k is, and our method has better performance for the anomaly behaviors caused by network failure than that caused by intentional attack. Compared with traditional anomaly detection, our work may be more simple and powerful for the government or organization in items of detecting large-scale abnormal events.
We present a method to detect anomalies in a time series of flow interaction patterns. There are many existing methods for anomaly detection in network traffic, such as number of packets. However, there is non established method detecting anomalies i n a time series of flow interaction patterns that can be represented as complex network. Firstly, based on proposed multivariate flow similarity method on temporal locality, a complex network model (MFS-TL) is constructed to describe the interactive behaviors of traffic flows. Having analyzed the relationships between MFS-TL characteristics, temporal locality window and multivariate flow similarity critical threshold, an approach for parameter determination is established. Having observed the evolution of MFS-TL characteristics, three non-deterministic correlations are defined for network states (i.e. normal or abnormal). Furthermore, intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) is introduced to quantify three non-deterministic correlations, and then a anomaly detection method is put forward for single characteristic sequence. To build an objective IFS, we design a Gaussian distribution-based membership function with a variable hesitation degree. To determine the mapping of IFSs clustering intervals to network states, a distinction index is developed. Then, an IFS ensemble method (IFSE-AD) is proposed to eliminate the impacts of the inconsistent about MFS-TL characteristic to network state and improve detection performance. Finally, we carried out extensive experiments on several network traffic datasets for anomaly detection, and the results demonstrate the superiority of IFSE-AD to state-of-the-art approaches, validating the effectiveness of our method.
For many power-limited networks, such as wireless sensor networks and mobile ad hoc networks, maximizing the network lifetime is the first concern in the related designing and maintaining activities. We study the network lifetime from the perspective of network science. In our dynamic network, nodes are assigned a fixed amount of energy initially and consume the energy in the delivery of packets. We divided the network traffic flow into four states: no, slow, fast, and absolute congestion states. We derive the network lifetime by considering the state of the traffic flow. We find that the network lifetime is generally opposite to traffic congestion in that the more congested traffic, the less network lifetime. We also find the impacts of factors such as packet generation rate, communication radius, node moving speed, etc., on network lifetime and traffic congestion.
